On Wednesdays We Wear Pink.

With a handful of the New York shows covered (Victoria Beckham and Marchesa to name a few) I feel as if I am lightyears behind on checking out the newest, latest and greatest. Alas, I finally have a weekend with absolutely no plans (other than apartment hunting and trying to beat the heat wave that is making Los Angeles about the same temperature as a convection oven). But in other news... one trend that I am totally vibing on for next spring is sweet Pepto pink. Seen here at the Christopher Kane Spring 2013 show (and at many more; stay tuned) it's the perfect punchy color to make any dress feel so fresh and so clean, clean. File as spring forward.

Best Dressed at the Met Ball 2012.

I must say that my days this week have really been lacking in the glamour department. Just last weekend, I had a feeling that I was right on the edge of a major style slump (this self-imposed "budget" is killing me), when blam (totally just yelled this is my head) The Met Gala hit! (Relive last years by clicking here.) 

Although my daily work wear doesn't fall anywhere close to what the fab ladies above are wearing, it's definitely given me the push to stop wearing my go-to J Brand jeans every. single. day. But the real debate around the office (not involving my inability to pick a cute outfit this week) has been who was deserving of the best dressed title at this years Met Ball. And you know I had an opinion on that. Keep reading after the jump to see my favorite for this year! File as too much.

Best of LFW Spring 2012.

The British may have a thing or three on us Americans- take for instance these three groupings from the spring collections that make me totally jealous of those wankers across the pond. First up, the clean minimalistic looks seen at Osman, Aquascutum and Christopher Kane were so pure I wanted to
throw them on immediately and lounge around. With a simple flat sandal for spring any of these looks would be perfection. Next on the radar was all those florals (for spring? I know, groundbreaking) but the British really know how to funk them up and make them so the opposite of chintzy. Everyone from Mary Katrantzou, Matthew Williamson and Peter Pilotto were injecting some acid into Grandma's garden. Love. And to round it all out, the prim and proper look did have its place on the runway with mid-length smart skirts that were just darling. Gorg. To see the breakdown of my top fifteen looks as well as my absolute favorite look, keep reading after the jump! File as London calling.

Those Prada boots mixed with worn in denim. Beautiful.

Another It Girl spotting, this time it's Christine Centenera in Givenchy.

Now this is what I'd like to call bag ladies anonymous. 

It Girl: Shala Monroque rocking out the Prada. Even the rain can't keep away the fur and pailettes. 

Favorite fur color thus far. GORG.

Print mash-up and Christopher Kane clutch.

Prada skirt and stole + Louis Vuitton shoes = delicious.

Hmm...I see a Prada theme going on here. Love those sunnies.

ADR! in Prada no less!

Leopard jeans rolled up. Uber-cute.

Is that you Garance Dore? 

Even handbags need a bike rack.

Hawaii Hot Flash.

In an ode to the sunshine today, I am mentally sending everyone off on a vacation to the place I'd most like to be right now...that's right, the beach. Any beach would do with this heat, but there is one in particular that I've been dying to visit ever since I moved to the Bay Area. To the lucky West coasters who call Hawaii their go-to vacation spot, I envy you. Growing up in Texas, Hawaii was completely out of the question; instead my family spent vacations in and around Mexico rather than the far island in the Pacific. But now that it's only a five hour plane ride away, I'm thinking I'm going to need a little getaway. Check out the full itinerary after the jump as well as the perfect Luau outfit for any beach-goer. File as beat the heat.

Salzburg me away.

As a lover of classical music and all things sparkly, I have to admit that I have been anticipating a chance to share a travel post on Austria- the home of Mozart, Swarovski headquarters, picturesque Alpine slopes and a bustling modern art scene to boot. The lovely city of Salzburg is just the place to experience all of the above (with a slight detour for the sparkly part, see below); and with the slight chill in the air today in the Bay, I can't help but imagine myself in a much more romantic place (call me crazy but homeless people outside my door just doesn't do it for me.) Check out the complete fabulous itinerary after the jump along with the perfect outfit for exploring. File under dreaming on.

Head to toe Burberry. Well done love.

I'm loving the etherial light in this picture. 

Could her pants be any more fabulous?

I could never tire of these YSL pumps.

The effect of all the girls at Christopher Kane's show together is simply magnificent.

Outside the Burberry show. I'm totally adopting this look.

Charlotte Free at Vivienne Westwood. Only in London.

Glamorous, even in the rain.
